Questions Continue About The KDE League

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the stuff-to-read dept.

OrangeSpyderMan writes "Here is a further piece by Dennis E. Powell ("DEP"), the other is an editorial, submitted simply by "staff". They make interesting reading, and add a lot of info to the story previously reported Of particular insterest is an apparent clarification of the tax status of the league, which, if anything, serves to complicate a little further the true role of the league, as the editorial goes on to explain. Basically the "staff" appear to wonder if it wouldn't have been more productive to give the $170,000 that the League appears to have collected (or be owed) directly to the KDE project."

    But then the League wouldn't have that cool metallic headquarters downtown headquarters from which they fight crime.

    Oh, wait, that was the Justice League.

    KDE/Gnome are largely unknown by the common Windows-using public.

    But that can't be true! What about all the good work being done by the KDE League to errrr... never mind :)
